• Tour of new custom M1 macOS runners racks with Christina Warren [video]

  So much effort, just to run Xcode remotely. For those of you who want to ship code to macOS from CI (e.g. Electron apps), you should check out my companies product at https://hydraulic.dev/ ... It lets you package, sign, notarize and upload self-updating Mac apps from any OS including Linux. Amongst other things it bundles Sparkle on the fly also, so you don't have to deal with Squirrel, and it can do the same... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• What improvements would you like to see for Electron app deployment?

  I work on a tool that simplifies deploying desktop apps, and we're looking at what improvements the Electron community might benefit from the most. It'd be great to get feedback on where your biggest pain points are and what you'd find most valuable in such a tool. Source: 8 months ago

• Is macOS’s new XProtect behavioural security preparing to go live?

  You could try experimenting with Hydraulic Conveyor [1]. I built it originally due to the frustrations involved in distributing P2P software during my old Bitcoin days so you won't get any hate from me about that ;) Conveyor can package Electron apps and also do all the Mac specific stuff from any platform including Linux.

One possibility is a trial period, but then how long... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Flatpak Is Not the Future

  Apple bundles compared to Flatpaks: • Both use reverse DNS to globally identify themselves, neither actually verifies DNS ownership. • Almost everything is a bundle, except for CLI apps. FlatPaks on the other hand are being auto-converted from previous packaging systems. • Bundles don't have dependencies. In theory they can, but in practice they never do. You depend on macOS/iOS as a unitary platform and bundles... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Monitor Connectivity Software ???

  Statuscake.com if you just need a simple up/down monitor. Source: about 2 years ago

• basic external monitoring system

  I've had a great time with statuscake.com for my personal and friends sites. They've even improved custom status pages to include an automatically signed certificate too, so you can make a site like status.yourdomain.com... Test TCP connection, specific HTTP/HTTPS query etc. 5 minute intervals for free, more with paid plans. Source: over 2 years ago

• Expired Certificate

  I use statuscake.com for external stuff and nagios for internal. PRTG is good too. Source: over 2 years ago

• Website uptime reporting

  I use statuscake.com for all my personal / friend sites. There seems to be no limit to number of sites to monitor for basic 5 minute intervals in the free account. Source: over 2 years ago

• How to get notified when home loses power?

  I use noip.com for a free domain name and a free plan on statuscake.com for this setup. Source: almost 3 years ago
